Organization offers free plastic surgery to children.

A non-profit called Little Baby Face Foundation offers free plastic surgery to children. This story is a bit old, but I thought I'd be worth sharing.

The worst part of the video is when the plastic surgeon pressures the little girl into getting more plastic surgery like a used car salesman.

Wow's that fucked up. All she really needed to do was grow out her hair and cover her ears and that whack Dr. Romo ruined her chin and he really had no reason to act on any of her other features.

Her ears were not even notable before the operation once she'd gotten older--except for the way she had her hair. Nothing against free plastic surgery as such, but it's wrong how she was coerced into it by peers and surgeons (assured as they were of some nice big sums coming in from the charity or whatever).

And this is not entirely on-topic, but popular standards of beauty suck and, ugly though I am, if I was offered free plastic surgery I'd probably not take it unless it could make me look exactly like some cute 20-year-old Japanese boy. I mean exactly.

If only that money were used to give cleft palate surgery to infants of parents that cannot afford it.

EDIT: I should clarify things. If someone wants to change something about themselves then fine, but if they are doing it out of fear then it should be examined closer. In this case the parents should have really taken action. That girl did not need any plastic surgery, none. She was just fine the way that she was. Speaking as someone who had to deal with a lot of bullshit from bullies (until I beat one to a pulp) she should have been shown another way by someone thinking more rationally.

Wha? She didn't 'need' to do or change anything to stop the bullying, because the implication of that stance is that her physical appearance was to blame for the bullying instead of fucked up peers. I mean, this whole child-marketed plastic surgery dealio is fucking vile, but, really?

Plastic sugery does have a place, for example if someone was scarred in a serious accident. And under those circumstances I think a charity providing it would be fine. but pressuring kids to get it because the adults around them can't discipline bullies is wrong.

Personally I'd be more in favour of surgery for the bullies... like an excision of whatever part of their brain is responsible for their anti-social aggression.

But grim jokes aside, the point remains that the problem of bullying comes entirely from the bully, not the victim.

Having had plastic surgery (though it was minor) at a young age, and knowing the way it would have been if I hadn't gotten it, I know that my life so far would have had a lot more hardships and I am grateful that I had the surgery. However, that is not to say that plastic surgery is always (or even normally) good. Society has bullshit beauty standards that don't mean shit, cause every time they come up it is always to knock someone down, never once to compliment someone. I wish there was a way to have plastic surgery not be almost entirely based off of the "beauty standards" that we have, and instead have it be based entirely on what the person who is getting the surgery wants. This does raise the issue of young children and whatnot, and whether or not their guardians are able to make decisions about the child's appearance to make the plastic surgery ok. All in all, I wish that plastic surgery wasn't just used to enforce beauty standards.
